Are you sure this is rude ?
If you cant shake hands, kiss hand, give a kiss on the cheek - what do you do?
Just say "hello" ?
For example, if I was meeting a friends wife for the first time.
give up your sit to a lady in a train, bus, tram......

Travel / Health Tourism in Poland [17]
Just spent £4.5k on a couple of implants (teeth). Im not loaded but youre teeth are your teeth, if you know what I mean. Anyway, had complications and had to get further work done - glad I did them here as it was a big job.
I might get my veneers re-done and I would consider going to Pl for that.

Food / the best cure for hangover-the polish way ;) [76]
Have to agree up to a point ! Glass Irn Bru tastes better than cans, plastic Irn Bru only if you are desperate. Got to be bacon instead of sausage. Ketchup for bacon.
BTW - I only realised recently that Doda is the face of Irn Bru in Poland.
This is a scottish thing, irn-bru and a roll and sausage.

May - the first thing you need to do is find someone to talk to. This will help you clarify what your own feelings are in a more positive environment.

I see in your profile you are from Glasgow. Scotland has a declining population. While the rest of the UK has a problem with immigration Scotland is actively encouraging it.
It is not the view of the democratically elected Scottish Government.
The answer is that we british do not want any immigrants coming into our country,

Law / Organised Crime - Mafia Business in Poland [21]
OK - so I am getting mixed picture from the forum.
The friend I spoke to in PL does import/export and so has dealings with the docks. Harbours and docks throughout the world are known for scams etc I suppose.
The other person I spoke to had their own plumbing business and after installing a new bathroom the customer just said "thanks" and didnt pay him. When he asked again he got a visit from some people.
Maybe its not as bad as I first thought.

Law / Organised Crime - Mafia Business in Poland [21]
Everyone I talk to about small businesses in Pl talks about organised crime - mafia types. How bad is this in Poland ? Is it just protection type rackets, local "tax" type things. How much of a hassle is it when starting up a business ? Any particular areas worse than others ? I am thinking of the Gdansk bay area in particular.

Its maybe a bigger deal for ex pats, an excuse to get together and have a drink.
I would have thought now that Poland is asserting herself in Europe that a bigger deal would have been made of these kind of days.

Biedronka was one of the first Polish words I learned due to how many stores there are with a big ladybird stuck to the side of them.
